It’s time to sign up for the 2018 Saint James Soccer season!  Boys and girls in grades 3 through 8 are eligible to play.  The season runs from early April through mid June.  If your child is planning to participate, please click on the link below to read the detailed information from Coach Sargent.  The sign-up form should be returned to the school office with the appropriate activity fee (make checks out to “Saint James School”) by Friday, March 23rd.  If your child has not previously participated in a sport at SJS this year, you will need to also submit the Athletics Health Form for 2017-2018 (see below).

Please note – we are in need of coaches, particularly for the younger grades (you do not have to have a child playing to coach). To volunteer or if you have any questions about the program, please contact Jon Sargent via telephone at 440-319-8892 or email: sjssoccer@charter.net.

As you know, this has been a very unusual year in terms of the amount of snow days we have incurred.  We have been watching each week as a new storm comes into the forecast and have wanted to see signs of spring before we determined/communicated how we would account for all the missed days.  Thank you for your patience.

Barring any further weather events cancelling school, our last day of school here at Saint James will be Friday, June 22^nd.

We will have full-day sessions on Monday and Tuesday of that week, with early dismissal (12:05pm) on Wednesday (June 20^th), Thursday (June 21^st), and Friday (June 22^nd).

Aftercare WILL be in session on all three of the 12:05pm dismissal days.

There will not be any snow days made up during April vacation as many families (and staff) have travel plans.

The extra week of school in June does impact our summer program and we will communicate over the next few days what the changes to that program will look like.

Thank you to all our students and teachers who supported the $1.00 Green & White Dress down Day today in honor of the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. Here are a few pictures of the students captured throughout the day.

Yesterday Saint James School 8th graders traded their uniforms for 1960’s attire in honor of finishing their coursework on the book The Outsiders.  In addition to writing a cause and effect essay, students were given moral/ethical questions to consider both before and after they read the book.  These questions were used for class discussions on tolerance, acceptance, empathy, and other themes central to the story. Below are some pictures of the students.

 

 

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, Mrs. Zorger is hosting a green & white $1.00 dress down day tomorrow – Friday, 3/16.  All money raised will be donated to St. Baldrick’s Foundation, which funds pediatric cancer research.
